I printed pertinent information (design, designer, builder, building date, etc) on acetate (used for overhead projection slides) in my laser printer, then glassed it under the deck of my canoe, mounted backwards so that it is readable by holding a mirror under the deck.

Ken Sarkozy

: just remembered something else: somebody mentioned on this board "years
: ago" that he used "rice paper" to put artwork on his deck.
: he prints/ paints/whatever the artwork on the rice paper & after it's
: dried he put it on his deck. the rice paper turns transparet, &
: disappears when wetted with epoxy.

: I think he also mentioned oil based colors must not be used because, as we
: all know, epoxy & oils are NOT good friends.

: so HE said. I never tried it myself.

: Hey rehd, check my 2 messages under this thread. you're in the stage with
: your canoe that isn't too late for this info.

: good luck to all
